Mirror Master

April 20, 2010

Because I realised this morning that I’ve fallen in love with the Flash’s Rogues gallery. I mean, come on. Mirror Master? Captain Cold? The Pied Piper? AWESOME.
Also, if you’re not already listening to Tom Vs. The Flash and you like old comics, you really ought to do yourself a favor and check it out.

Oh, hey, what have we here? Could it be? Could it possibly be? The first entry in a new blog series?!
Yes sir, your eyes do not deceive you! It’s the new Legion of Superheroes alphabet series, starting off on a truly unsettling note with Legion reject Arm-Fall-Off Boy! In his own words, “My power will [...]

Z is for Zorro

January 22, 2010

Well folks, we’ve reached the end of the series. Z is for Zorro!
It took significantly longer than 26 weeks, but here we are. I’m a little bit more experienced, you’re a little bit more aware of the absurdity of many comic book characters- I’d say we both came out ahead.
I’ll be starting the next series, [...]

Y is for Yankee Poodle

January 21, 2010

This one harkens all the way back to the entry for the letter C.
Yankee Poodle is a member of the Zoo Crew, the team of talking animal superheroes let by Captain Carrot.

X is for Charles Xavier

January 20, 2010

aka Professor X, leader of the X-Men!
Now, I’ve got to be completely honest. I don’t much like Professor X. He always seemed kind of sinister- like he had some ulterior motive he wouldn’t share with the team. But then, I’ve never been a huge X-Men fan in general, so take my opinion with a grain [...]

Creator and leader of the Metal Men, Doc Will Magnus has survived cancellations and disastrous revisions to be one of the most fun, high-concept characters in the DC Universe. Doc and his team  of sentient robots, each named after and having the physical properties of a particular metal, are some of my favorite characters DC [...]

January 18, 2010

Full title: Volstagg The Voluminous, the Lion of Asgard!
(I assume the exclamation point is mandatory, but I can’t say for sure.)

Volstagg is a character from Marvel’s Thor series, and is a member of the Warriors Three, Thor’s drinking/fighting buddies. He is known for being (a) awesome, (b) fat, and (c) totally rad.
Stay tuned for more [...]

Danny The Dragon

January 11, 2010

Here’s a recent shirt design commissioned by Happy Hollow Park & Zoo in San Jose.
I submitted three roughs with the same dragon artwork, and this was my favorite. (Unfortunately, the client went with my least favorite, a more typography-centered design. Ain’t that always the way.)
This was a fun illustration job, as the client wanted to [...]

U is for Ultron

November 9, 2009

That’s right! A murderous artificial intelligence! Can’t go wrong with Ultron. He/it is awesome.
And that’s all for today!
